NHTSA Complaint #10608216 — 2007 PONTIAC GRAND PRIX

I, THE OWNER OF A 2007 GRAND PRIX SEDAN, OPERATING SAID VEHICLE ON A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET AT THE SPEED OF 20 MPH EXPERIENCED STALLED VEHICLE. WAS UNABLE TO STEER, BRAKE, AND REALIZED THE VEHICLE HAD STALLED WHILE DRIVING. APPLIED EMERGENCY BRAKE IN ORDER TO COME TO A CONTROLLED STOP TO PREVENT CRASHING INTO TRAFFIC. TURNED THE IGNITION KEY COMPLETELY OFF, PLACE VEHICLE IN PARK, AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART VEHICLE. ELECTRIC IGNITION SWITCH CONTINUED TO TRY TO START THE VEHICLE, TAKING 3 ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE IGNITION SWITCH ALLOWED VEHICLE TO START. GM MUST ADDRESS THIS OR IT WILL COST MORE THAN JUST PARTS, IT WILL DO IT AGAIN AND NO ONE CAN SAY WHERE MY FAMILY AND I MAY EXPERIENCE THIS AGAIN. IT WAS A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE TO HAVE NO CONTROL WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION WITH PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. *TR
